St. Louis, Sept. 23.
Doctor A. F. Saugrain has politely given us the perusal of a letter from Dr. Robinson, dated at Watusco, 20 leagues S. W. of Vera Cruz, on the 3d of July last.
It seems by this letter, that the Mexican Republic has formed a constitution, and organized a deliberative body, under style of the Supreme Congress. The ardor of the patriots remains unabated, and a speedy termination of the revolution would be effected, if the republicans were better furnished with the munitions of war. They are well clothed and fed, and the financial concerns are in a flourishing condition.
The utmost pains had been taken to silence political animosities. Generalissimo Morelos, Captain-General Rayon, and other distinguished officers, had been chosen representatives, thereby closing their military functions.
Doctor Robinson was on his way to the Congress. He is zealously engaged in a great cause, and with his reputed enterprise and talents, will, no doubt, be of much service to the people whose happiness is just springing into existence.
